The flour of Isabgol Husk is added in multi-grain flour to enhance nutritive value as well as fiber content of cereal flours.

Psyllium Husk can absorb 14 times more water than its weight. Psyllium seeds can absorb 3 times water than its weight. Therefore, the high amount of liquids or water should be consumed while taking Psyllium Husk. It will also help preventing immediate side effects like choking.
